 Abstract

Currently, only one Standard Instrument Departure (SID) track and one flight procedure is used per runway departure fix combination. In contrast to tailored arrivals, the potential benefit of tailored departures has been left relatively undiscovered. The research objective is to quantify the potential benefit of tailored SID-s and profile allocation for Amsterdam Airport Schiphol by developing a model that is capable of simulating departure trajectories per runway departure fix and optimize the overall allocation of departing aircraft for noise and fuel consumption. The proposed methodology includes a two-step modelling framework. The two models involve the design of novel tailored departure trajectories using a multi objective genetic algorithm and the computation of optimal flight allocation by means of Mixed Integer Linear Programming (MILP). A case study is presented and serves as proof of concept.
